Heights of offspring of Zea mays
Description
A dataset containing the height of 15 pairs of the offspring of maize plants.
Usage
cornheight
Format
A data frame with 15 pairs of observations and three variables:
- Pair
Pair number, a numeric vector
- Cross
Height of cross-fertilized plants, a numeric vector
- Self
Height of self-fertilized plants, a numeric vector
Details
Darwin took 15 pairs of Zea Mays plants, where within each pair the
two plants were of exactly the same age, were subjected from the first to
last to the same conditions, and were descended from the same parents. One
individual in each pair was cross-fertilized and the other was
self-fertilized. The heights of offspring were then measured to the nearest
eighth of an inch. This data set was used by Fisher (1935) to introduce the
idea of the randomization test with paired comparison data.
